Unravelling Cosmic Mysteries: From Astro Theology to Testable Hypotheses —A Research Agenda
Abstrak
This pre-print reframes Santos Bonacci's lecture Know Thyself: The Oracle of Delphi (Part 1) as a source of empirically testable hypotheses rather than as settled historical or scientific fact. Preserving the lecture's hermeneutic insights, the paper translates claims concerning precession, stellar colour change, high-energy cosmic phenomena, and monumental encoding into clearly defined research questions and interdisciplinary methods for verification. Two priority case studies-an archaeoastronomical test of a single monument and an astrophysical test of a named stellar change claim-are proposed with detailed protocols. By distinguishing interpretive, historical, and empirical claims, the paper offers a transparent research agenda that strengthens scholarly dialogue while improving public understanding of the evidentiary standards required for extraordinary cosmological assertions.
